Rachel bought Patch on Gumtree UK. Shortly after, Patch sadly passed away. His condition indicated he was likely to have been bred on a puppy farm. Thanks to the anonymity afforded on Gumtree, Rachel has lost a beloved pet and a significant amount of money, with little chance of ever tracing the unscrupulous dealer that sold her the puppy.

Our new campaign calls on eBay Bay (which owns many of the world’s leading classified ad websites, including Gumtree) to change its policy so that animals can no longer be sold anonymously online.

We want to be able to thank eBay for the right reasons, not for providing an ideal platform for the ruthless and cruel puppy trade.
